Restoration of profiles Firefox saved IE before uninstalling Firefox

I read that to keep my bookmarks and settings of Firefox before I uninstalled it I had to copy the figure 8 files on IE, I did. I uninstalled then reinstalled Firefox but can't find a way to restore these files IE to Firefox.

Hey my77raisins,

I think you are looking for article Import Favorites to Internet Explorer. This should give you all the information you need to get everything out of IE and return to Firefox.

Hope that helps!

    IM using ACER emachine & having problem with windows

    You have three separate issues.

    1. you cannot restore your computer to a point before March 2010.

    Win XP has crushed almost certainly your old restore point data.  In all cases, the configuration of your computer has probably changed a lot during the six last or seven months, so it would be a very bad idea to even try to push that up to now.

    2 uninstalling AVG.

    I presume that you uninstalled AVG Control Panel / Add or remove problems.

    If you have not already done so, you must also download the appropriate www.avg.com/us-en/download-tools or www.avg.com/gb-en/download-tools (depending on your location) removal tool.  Run the tool to remove the remaining bits and pieces of AVG, which are likely to be scattered through your computer.

    Either way, I hope you have another antivirus program installed.

    3. inability to use Wi - Fi Hotspots

    I doubt that this has nothing to do with the installation or removal of AVG.  However, I suspect that the proprietary software of Roadrunner, or software supplied with your router, is to control the wireless connection, instead of Windows.

    It could be a very simple process to persuade windows to regain control of your wireless connection.  Try the following:

    Open Control Panel and double-click on network connections.
    Right click on wireless network connection and select Properties
    Open the wireless networks tab and check that the box "Use Windows to configure my wireless network".
    At the bottom of this menu, click on "Advanced".  Then, check the option to enable access to "Any available network".
    Save your changes

    I always work hard and with Firefox. My customization assuming that it is transferred always organize buttons back and forward in the navigation bar on the right side which was convenient for a quick job. In the new version of Firefox 29.0.1 deleted the possibility of moving the navigation on the right side buttons... Firefox is not flexible enough for the user. Really sorry. Restored version of Firefox 28. More frequent to not remove the flexible adjustment of the navigation keys. Thank you.

    28 Firefox has security flaws. It is not safe to use.

    You can move the navigation buttons in Firefox 29 if you install an add-on.

    2. Open the modules (Ctrl + Shift + A Manager; Mac: Command + shift + A), then the Extensions category.
    3. Beside the classical restaurant theme, click on the Options button.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones unable to respond to emails after the restoration of profile

    Hi BB community.

    I have problems with the sending of responses to emails on my Blackberry 8310. I can receive emails and send emails again, but I'm unable to respond to emails sent to me (there no option). The only option I have is to write a new email and send.

    I tried to have service returned books, hard reset (handheld wipe) and initially it seemed to have not solved the problem. After trying another activation hard reset and company the second time without restoring my profile and third-party applications, I had the opportunity to respond to emails. However, the restoration after the activation is not successfully restore my apps and it causes the question answer to happen again.

    My question is, how do I proceed from here? Should I just suck it and re - download all my apps again instead of restore, is possible (which seems likely) that one of my apps is causing this issue or it could even be something to do with how I install my Blackberry Desktop?

    Any input would be greatly appreciated.

    I think your correct, your app is causing the problem.  Once you restore, you still have the problem.  I would like to re - download apps not restore from the BES.  I think it's your problem.

  • Firefox is reset, cannot restore my profile

    Firefox is reset for any reason, was able to restore my bookmarks and passwords but could not recover my extensions. I did the procedure of profile (creating a new default profile and the copy - paste of my old data in this folder after deleting everything) and Firefox still loads a blank canvas when I select this profile.

    I can't batch reinstall of my xpi and I don't want to lose all the information contained in some of my extensions (configuration/data etc.). Anyone with the same problem?

    Hmm, you should see some personal data in the profile if everything fell into its correct place. You can try it another way?

    First of all, make sure that Firefox is completely closed. So go ahead and open these two folders:

    (1) the old data of Firefox

    (2) your Firefox profiles folder. For quicker access to this file, you can type or paste the following text in the start search box menu (and press enter) or in the address bar in a window of Windows Explorer:

    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

    Then, copy your previous profile from #1 to #2 folder (for example, right-click > copy #1 and right click > paste to #2).

    In the #1 window, type or paste this into the address bar and press ENTER:

    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox

    In this folder, you should see a file called profiles.ini. If Windows hides the extension .ini, you can display it. See this Microsoft article on measures for this: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hide-file-name-extensions

    Right click > edit the file profiles.ini and it should open in Notepad. You should see something like the following:

    [General]
StartWithLastProfile=1

    [Profile0]
Name=default
IsRelative=1
Path=Profiles/asdf1234.default
Default=1

    There may be several entries, but you want to change which is currently the default and dysfunctional.

    Change the part of path after profiles / to match the name of the folder that you pasted in the #2 window. Then try to start new Firefox

  • Should I first delete all saved passwords before you assign the main firefox 21 password

    I want to start using the "Master password" feature. There are a couple of hundred passwords 'stored' in the tab Options-Security-Saved passwords so I wonder if it would be better to remove ALL these before you set up a master password. I'll be change and delete several of the "stored" passwords in any case. But my main question is whether the 'master' password all the 'stored' existing passwords and what happens if they have already been composed anyway surfing crypterait?

    Passwords current al will be encrypted with the master password if you set one, which includes the passwords that you have already saved. There is therefore no need to delete the current passwords.

    original error was "already in the process of running FF" - not the view in the task manager - not could close - restarted several times - same results - uninstalled FF and tried the download & installation of new - same message "already running." W8.1 revenue by about 3 weeks (3 updates) - same result when installing FF = already "running." After the message "already running" is always the profile is missing or inaccessible.

    Do the same thing with TB BTW. Using the latest version of VIPRE internet security on automatic update. Nothing like on a W7 and XP machine on the same LAN. Is there a virus on corrupting FF? Scan VIPRE says nothing about the machine of 8.1...

    Is there a file signons.sqlite in this profile?

    32 of Firefox and later versions store the passwords in the file logins.json in the profile folder and no longer use the file signons.sqlite.
    If you have the file signons.sqlite which has been used in Firefox 31 and more, then you could try to recover the passwords stored in this file (you lose passwords saved in Firefox 32).
    You can force Firefox to re-import the passwords in the file signons.sqlite and regenerate the logins.json file.

    • reset the signon.importedFromSqlite pref on the topic: config page by default via the context menu
    • Delete the logins.json file in the closed Firefox with Firefox profile folder

    When you restart Firefox, then you should have the pref signon.importedFromSqlite with the value set to true and you should have the passwords into password manager, unless he could have errors.
